项目摘要

In this decade - the genome and the post genomic era -, the information concerning the life science enormously increased due to the rapid development of the molecular biology study of the genes and the proteins. It meant that so called "information explosion" occurred in the life science field, and the data driven discovery became mainstream. Previously, the data which had been owned by the researcher was stored in notebooks or personal computers, at this moment, with the penetration of the internet, the data digitization and the resulting disclosure worked out in the laboratory. As a result, most experimental data was maintained in databases, and the condition which anyone can access and use the database was in place. The knowledge from the life science is necessary for human beings to live better lives, for example medical or environmental issues. To share research derived knowledge, further communication should be made between people in research fields and general public. However, because of the life science research is highly specialized and segmentalized fields, the knowledge from the life science domain is hard to understand for a non specialist, and even for a specialist. And because English is the main language of life science documents, there are disadvantage those people whose first language is not English to obtain up to date information. To give an example, many diseases related genes have been discovered, when the human genome sequence was published, but the knowledge about the causes of the disease has not be used for everyone to understand it. Therefore, in this research, I proposed that the research about the linguistic resources and information systems what we need for the improved science communication for life science, and developed required resources, like dictionary and ontology and explanatory documents. Study results from the research were used for Japanese biology portal site "Jabion" (http://www.bioportal.jp).

在基因组和后基因组时代的这十年里，由于基因和蛋白质的分子生物学研究的迅速发展，有关生命科学的信息大量增加。这意味着生命科学领域出现了所谓的“信息爆炸”，数据驱动的发现成为主流。以前，研究人员拥有的数据存储在笔记本电脑或个人电脑中，此时，随着互联网的渗透，数据数字化和由此产生的披露在实验室中完成。因此，大多数实验数据都保存在数据库中，任何人都可以访问和使用数据库。来自生命科学的知识是人类过上更好生活所必需的，例如医疗或环境问题。为了共享研究成果，研究领域的人员和公众之间应该进行进一步的交流。然而，由于生命科学研究是高度专业化和细分化的领域，来自生命科学领域的知识对于非专业人员来说是难以理解的，甚至对于专业人员来说也是如此。由于英语是生命科学文献的主要语言，对于母语不是英语的人来说，获取最新的信息是不利的。例如，在人类基因组序列公布的同时，许多疾病相关基因已经被发现，但关于疾病原因的知识还没有被用于每个人的理解。因此，在本研究中，我提出了关于语言资源和信息系统的研究，我们需要改进生命科学的科学交流，并开发了所需的资源，比如字典、本体论和解释性文档。研究结果用于日本生物学门户网站“Jabion”（www.bioportal.jp）。
